DCP-FRCME-M - FAST RESPONSE CONTACT MODULE

DESCRIPTION

The DCP-FRCME-M is a small design and is suitablefor mounting in a single gang box.

The Hochiki DCP-FRCME-M Fast Response ContactMonitoring Modules are designed to be used with pullstations, water flow switches, and other applicationsrequiring the monitoring of dry contact devices. Theinterrupt driven Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)combines maximum communication reliability and fastresponse to emergency conditions. The DCP-FRCME-M contact monitoring module does not require a sepa-rate 24 VDC power source.

Each addressable contact monitoring module isprogrammed with its own unique Signaling LineCircui t (SLC) loop address. The device address iselectrically programmable and stored in onboardEEPROM. Up to 127 devices can be placed on theHochiki DCP SLC loop. The module supervises the wiringto the contact with an End Of Line (EOL) resistor. It canbe programmed to monitor Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) contacts. If a fault conditionoccurs in the wiring, the module sends a trouble statussignal to the fire alarm control panel. When a change of status (contact changes state) is sensed by the DCP-FRCME-M, it sends an interrupt to the control panelindicating that an alarm has occurred.
